    Hi,

    If you have a joint claim then I'm afraid your husband getting LCWRA will not add any more money to your payments. Only one LCWRA payment can be made for a joint claim.

    He could claim the Carers Element if he provides 35 hours care for you, and you get a qualifying disability benefit such as PIP or ADP.
